Would a Reserator cool these?

Thinking about buying a new Zalman Reserator to cool two my FX60 and 1900XTX! The CPU is Overclocked 200mhz to 2800mhz and the card would be stock. Case is an Antec P180.

Has anyone else cooled a 1900XTX with this system at all? -In fact is it Ok to water cool a 1990 XTX as the memory will not be covered or would I need additional heatsinks?

The Resorator should be ok to cool that but I doubt the temps will be great.

As for the X1900 I don't see a problem running the ram bare. Someone else on here runs an X1800 this way, so unless there is a major difference in the ram i can't see it being aproblem. GDDR3 runs pretty cool anyway.

the zalman kit also includes 8 ram heatsinks ..maybe they fit GDDR3 chips (dont know for sure since my card hasnt got this type of memory)...

Well I'm not too bothered about getting really low temps just reducing the noise and having the same temps as air will do me!

I just like the idea of a nice quite performance rig!

Had one running fine with your setup OC.
